Hill Country Ranches

admin — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 17:07:03 +0000

One of Texas’ most treasured features is its Hill Country located in the central part of the state and owning a piece of it is like owning a piece of heaven. Many people think of Texas as a big desert or a dusty plain but Texas is one of the most diverse states in America. Hill Country ranches can vary from valleys with bubbling creeks to hilltops grandly displaying the countryside. Some of the most coveted Hill Country ranches even feature broad, clear limestone rivers such as the Pedernales, Frio, Comal or Blanco rivers. Common wildlife on Hill Country ranches includes whitetail deer, axis deer, turkey and feral hogs. Ranches in the Hill Country can range from just 20 acres to 20,000 acres but they all have common features of rolling limestone hills and broad oaks. Many people see the non-native ash juniper more commonly called a “cedar” as an invasive species on Hill Country ranches but the mature trees have become home to the endangered golden cheeked warbler and black-capped vireo. Protecting these species through conservation easements is one way owners of Hill Country ranches can gain tax benefits and protect the land from over development. Owning a ranch in the Hill Country offers a place to escape the stress of everyday life and experience a little bit of unspoiled nature.
